Mesmerizing Main Coon

This is a photo of my Main Coon, Wolfgang Amadeus. I dislike this cat on so many levels. He’s generally inhospitable and indifferent. He seldom accepts affection and prefers to live a mostly independent existence unless it’s mealtime. Despite these shortcomings, I find myself memorized by his splendorous coloring and markings. His remarkable hypnotic appearance is a constant draw to my inner photographic artist
